WHEREAS, the Retirement Commission of the Wayne County Employees’ Retirement

the Retirement System provisions, and

WHEREAS, prior to Mr. Daniel Ogden Kerber separation from employment with the

Wayne County Airport Authority (“WCAA”) in 2009 he was a member of the Retirement

System’s Plan 5, and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Severance Agreement and

Release (“Severance Agreement”) executed between Mr. Kerber and Mr. Lester Robinson, the

WCAA CEO at the time, Mr. Kerber was given the unprecedented opportunity to transfer from

Plan 5 into Plan 1, and

WHEREAS, the Severance Agreement specifically provides that Mr. Kerber be allowed

to “transfer his Plan 5 defined contribution pension assets to Plan 1, and elect Plan 1 as his

retirement plan”, and

WHEREAS, Mr. Kerber was allowed to retire from Plan 1 and commenced receipt of a

Plan 1 defined benefit pension of approximately $11,337.48 per month, and

9

October 29, 2018

Regular Meeting

WHEREAS, on April 27, 2011, Mr. Kerber withdrew the balance of his Plan 5 defined

contribution assets, and

WHEREAS, on May 2, 2011, Mr. Kerber was issued a check for the balance of his Plan 5

defined contribution assets, and

WHEREAS, accordingly, an audit of Mr. Kerber’s file revealed that he had withdrawn

his Plan 5 defined contribution assets but was still receiving a Plan 1 defined benefit pension,

and

WHEREAS, by receiving an increased defined benefit pension calculated pursuant to the

terms of Plan 1, Mr. Kerber was overpaid and received more money from the Retirement System

than he was entitled to,

WHEREAS, based on the unusual circumstances surrounding Mr. Kerber’s retirement

and the potentially fraudulent activity, staff, in accordance with the Wayne County Fraud

Ordinance and personnel policies, reported the perceived fraud to the Wayne County

Prosecutor’s Office, and

WHEREAS, pending the Wayne County Prosecutor’s investigation and subsequent

prosecution, Mr. Kerber’s pension benefits were suspended and held in trust, and

WHEREAS, Mr. Kerber, through his attorneys, Robert Mullen, Esq. and Jamil Akhtar,

Esq., appealed the Retirement Commission’s suspension of his benefits, and

WHEREAS, the Retirement Commission directed its legal counsel, the VanOverbeke,

Michaud & Timmony, P.C. law firm (“VMT”), to review the matter, and

WHEREAS, VMT has met with Retirement System staff to obtain all relevant

Retirement System records, including without limitation, Mr. Kerber’s personnel file, the

Severance Agreement, and all other relevant documents, and

WHEREAS, at its January 30, 2017, regular meeting, the Retirement Commission

considered an appeal from Mr. Kerber, allowing each of Mr. Kerber’s attorneys, Mr. Akhtar and

Mr. Mullen, the opportunity to present arguments to the Retirement Commission, and

WHEREAS, at its January 30, 2017, regular meeting, the Retirement Commission

resolved to deny Mr. Kerber’s appeal and affirm the suspension of his benefits, based on the

testimony, review of the appeal submission from Mr. Kerber’s attorneys, and advice from its

legal counsel, and

WHEREAS, the Michigan Supreme Court entered an order on October 2, 2018, by which

it declined the Wayne County Prosecutor’s application for leave to appeal the May 15, 2018,

judgment of the Michigan Court of Appeals, thus ending Mr. Kerber’s criminal prosecution, and

10

October 29, 2018

Regular Meeting

WHEREAS, at its October 29, 2018, regular meeting, the Retirement Commission

discussed Mr. Kerber’s retirement with staff and VMT, reviewing: (1) a confidential legal

opinion from VMT; (2) a copy of Mr. Kerber’s Severance Agreement; (3) a copy of the October

2, 2018, Order issued by the Michigan Supreme Court; (4) a copy of the calculation form for Mr.

Kerber’s Plan 5 defined benefit pension; (5) a copy of the July 1, 2009, Account Statement from

Prudential regarding Mr. Kerber’s Plan 5 defined contribution assets; and (6) a copy of the check

issued to Mr. Kerber on May 2, 2011,

WHEREAS, in its legal opinion, VMT advised the Retirement Commission that because

Mr. Kerber withdrew the assets from his Plan 5 defined contribution account he did not satisfy

the condition precedent required by the terms of his Severance Agreement and, accordingly,

should not have been permitted to retire from Plan 1, therefore be it


legal report from VMT, and be it further

RESOLVED, that the Wayne County Employees’ Retirement Commission Adopts with

the legal opinion from VMT that Mr. Kerber did not satisfy the conditions required under his

Severance Agreement to retire under the provisions of Plan 1, and be it further

RESOLVED, that the Wayne County Employees’ Retirement Commission Adjusts the

value of Mr. Kerber’s defined benefit pension to be calculated pursuant to the terms of Plan 5,

approximately $6,056.38 per month (minus any reductions necessary to recover the amount he

was overpaid), and be it further

RESOLVED, that the Wayne County Employees’ Retirement Commission, as soon as

administratively feasible, Directs staff to restart Mr. Kerber’s plan 5 pension, and be it further

RESOLVED, that the Wayne County Employees’ Retirement Commission Directs staff

to use the assets held in trust during the suspension of Mr. Kerber’s defined benefit pension to

offset the amount Mr. Kerber owes the Retirement System, with interest, and be it further

RESOLVED, that Wayne County Employees’ Retirement Commission Directs staff to

recover the remaining amount Mr. Kerber has been overpaid from the Retirement System, with

interest, from either a lump sum payment from Mr. Kerber or pursuant to a repayment plan

overseen by the Executive Director in consultation with VMT, the Retirement System’s actuary,

and any other Retirement System service provider deemed necessary, and be it further

RESOLVED, that the Wayne County Employees’ Retirement Commission Directs VMT

to send written correspondence to Mr. Kerber’s attorneys to inform them of this decision and

offer Mr. Kerber his repayment options.
